The day Johnny Cash died was a terrbile day. "The Man in Black" has to be the greatest country singer of all time. His songs were all folksy, yet many taught lessons. My favorite of his songs, "The Night they Drove Old Dixie Down," is one that teavhes about the fall of Richmond. Johnny Cash was a great man.

Cash was great, although I prefer Hank Williams if I'm actually listening to country(which is rare).

No, George Jones is still around. And I would put George Strait as near great.

Never liked Hank Williams. Jimmie Rodgers is cool. But, to me, the GOAT has to be Dock Boggs.

How can you NOT like Hank Williams?

Ever listen to Johnny Paycheck?

I was born in the Territory of Alaska, raised in Oregon, and have lived in Oklahoma since 1995. I enjoy several kinds of music, includung some country (not Brooks), but I like classical music best.  
I noticed the error im my San Quentin quote.   Should say "I hate every inch..."

Tchaikovsky far and away the best.  Others are Beethovan, Brahms, Vivaldi and Mozart.  Veep Charles Dawes was a composer, but I've never heard anything he wrote.

How ironic that we're discussing classical music on a Johnny Cash thread.  He's probably rolling over in his grave.

Johnny Cash is one of my favorite musicians. Nothing beats "Cocaine Blues".

Aren't they just called Band? I know their album was called "The Band" but I think they were just Band, Weight is a good song.
